Welcome to the small town of Briarside, home to the Farqueson's Funeral Home Warriors - an underdog Atom team whose players are all heart and whose parents are all headaches. It turns out every kid's mom or dad is a potential "weakest link" - whether it be Barry McConnell, who shops his scoring-champ son Robbie to other teams and counts his son's future pro salary against his investment in him or obsessive team sponsor Aurora Farqueson, whose tomboy daughter Denim is living he mom's vicarious fantasy between the pipes for the Warriors.
The children, meanwhile, have their own issues to deal with.
The Tournament is mockumentary series that promises to do for minor hockey what Spinal Tap did for dino-rock and Best in Show did for dogs. Produced by the folks behind the Just For Laughs comedy festival, The Tournament strikes a blow at the insanity of hockey parents and speaks to everyone who ever skated on his or her ankles. With special appearances by NHL legends Phil Esposito, Marcel Dionne, Dennis Hull and Yvon Cournoyer. Nominated for 5 Gemini Awards and 3 Canadian Comedy Awards! 2 DVD set featuring the complete series with a full roster of special features including bonus footage and interviews.
